Wow - it looks like an FJ Cruiser designed by the Mini Cooper folks. Way to ruin classic lines and turn it into just another of the cookie-cutter crap designs out there.

Curves may look good on women and sports cars, but not on that Defender

Curves aren't necessarily the right curves on some women and on some sports cars... It depends on the curves... The right curves may look good even on a Jeep... :

Well, with other wheels... and other colors...

However, I completely trust Rover to pick the wrong curves for the new Defender...

Don't take it at face value, think of it in black, for instance, the right wheels for a Jeep, light bar, etc'...

Is this your reaction each time there's something that another person can see or understand, but you neither see nor understand it ?

Nope. Its the first time I've used it. And I understand it but wished I hadn't seen it. I could care less about the new Defender that I'll never have. But that Jeep monstrosity needs to be burned alive.

I'm with you on this one. That Jeep prototype is hideous.

The scary thing, is that every manufacturer's supposed off-road concepts, look geared to soccer moms and mall crawling. Keep your JK in good shape. Deal with rust on the frames proactively.
